[SharonRB]

:shrug:

[SharonRB]

1. Hillary finally says something right

Props where they're due, Hillary.

[SeattleGirl]

4. Absolutely!

I was very glad to hear her say that today.

[SeattleGirl]

2. Hola Sharon! Howdy all!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

10. Hi, SG

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

17. Hi, SG!

Happy Thursday.

[SeattleGirl]

20. Hey Patsy!

Happy Thursday to you too!

[GigiMommy]

3. Hi Sharon!! Hi Everybody!!

:hi: Gee! I was scared for a minute.

[SeattleGirl]

5. Hi Gigi!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

8. Hi SG!!

:hi: Oops! Wrong spot.

[SeattleGirl]

16. That's okay.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

11. Hi, Gigi

:hi:

What were you scared about?

[GigiMommy]

22. He came on so abruptly.

I thought something major happened. That's what I get from watching a steady stream of "BREAKING NEWS" from the local stations.

[SharonRB]

24. Yeah, it was pretty strange

I thought someone had died or something.

[Patsy Stone]

19. About the lack of intro?

:hi:

It's okay. It's over.

[Patsy Stone]

6. McCain Enable

Excellent captions again.

:hi:, all!

[SharonRB]

12. Excellent!

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

7. That was weird

but it's THE Gray Suit, so all is well. :loveya:

dg

[SharonRB]

13. Hi, DG

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

27. Heya Sharon!

:hi:

got your plane reservations made? I hope to make it to Austin for at least part of Netroots Nation.

dg

[SharonRB]

33. Yup

I made them right after I got off the phone with you the other day. I'm so glad I waited -- it was so much cheaper than it was a month or two ago when I first looked. Plus, now there was a decent non-stop both ways.

[SeattleGirl]

14. Hi DG!

:hi:

I'm gonna get spanked for this, but I really don't care that much for the gray suit. :blush:

[WolverineDG]

21. Inside joke

I'm the only one who likes that suit. hee hee :evilgrin:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

25. ......

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

26. Yes

And we love you for it.

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

29. PATS!!

:loveya:

:hi:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

35. Someone replied to my post in the Siegelman thread

on the front page, and the reply was deleted. So, I got that going for me, which is nice.

:)

That Wal-Mart story makes me wanna scream every time I hear it.

[gkhouston]

40. Me, too. And it surprises me not at all. n/t

[gkhouston]

42. I like that one too.

:thumbsup:

[gkhouston]

31. you only like it to be contrary.

:hi:

Hey, guess what? Hillary sent me an email thanking me for me being a delegate or alternate for her in my precinct. Good thing I wasn't drinking any liquids at the time or my computer would be toast. :rofl:

[WolverineDG]

36. All I got was a robocall

but at least I got to go all Mars Attacks while she was yappin' at me. :rofl:

dg

[gkhouston]

38. I think I would have gotten an in-person call

but my husband hung up on the person right after they said they were calling for the Clinton campaign. :P

[gkhouston]

46. I've gotten *two* emails today urging me to "meet Barack for dinner".

Think I should remind him that both of us are married (at least of them happily)? :shrug:

[WolverineDG]

59. Yeah, I got those too

so I set up my own fundraiser (see my thread about it if you care to kick in). :)

dg

[ralps]

9. Hi SharonRB, Hi Everyone!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SharonRB]

15. Hi, ralps

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

32. Hi Ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

41. Hi GigiMommy!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

18. The Democrats who say they will vote for McLame rather than

the candidate they are not currently supporting are full of it! Do they REALLY want another 4 years of the crap we've lived with for the past 7+ years?

[Patsy Stone]

23. No

They're Drama Queens.

[SeattleGirl]

28. There you go!

Drama Queen Smilie --->

[Patsy Stone]

30. LOL

I've never seen that one!

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

37. It's on my Firefox browser.

I think this one also fits the Clinton and Obama supporters who don't want to here ANYTHING even slightly negative about their candidate:

[Patsy Stone]

45. I wonder more

about the people who are HUGE supporters of X, yet only post negative stuff about Y.

That's a great smilie too. And very apropos of that forum.

[SeattleGirl]

48. Maybe I'll use it in response to the next Negative Nellie/Ned post

I see over there. :rofl:

[gkhouston]

49. well one thing I don't wonder about them is what they were like in junior high school

'cause that behavior is still on display ifyouknowhatImean. ;-)

[SeattleGirl]

51. Don't have to wonder.

Just have to read their posts.

Yesterday, I was playing alert police on a number of them from BOTH camps. :grr:

[gkhouston]

62. On my less charitable days, I wonder how many of them are supporters

and how many are paid RW shit-stirrers.

[Patsy Stone]

65. Most are the latter, I believe,

paid and unpaid.

[bleever]

54. Are you sure

it's part of Firefox? I use Firefox, but didn't know they offered smilies, unless it's an add-on.

[SeattleGirl]

57. Yep. I can't remember how I got the link onto my Firefox page.

I will have to ask the person who told me how to do it.

I'll let you know.

[Mabus]

114. Here's the firefox smiley add-on link

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/375

download and enjoy. Don't forget to use the search function for that special smiley.

[gkhouston]

34. Wow. I like that. Can't tell at first if it's thumbing its nose at you

or sucking its nose. How appropriate for GDP.

on edit; Excuse me, sucking its thumb. :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

39. Look at the other one I posted, just above your response.

:evilgrin:

[GigiMommy]

43. Hey I LIKE that one.

:loveya:

[bleever]

44. "Nancy Ploy"?

I'm not sure I get that one.


:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

47. Like Nancy Boy?

That's all I got.

:hi:

[bleever]

53. Me too, but

not funny.

Usually they bring the funny.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

64. Not funny.

However, I'm willing to spot them that one based on past performances -- but that's the last free pass. :)

[Botany]

50. You don't get that one?

I'll tell you for $500.00

[bleever]

52. When I can be ignorant for free?

Hey, is Brunner interested in looking at the Repubs who voted in the Dem primary?

[Botany]

63. She is going to do a state wide audit.

Nothing can really be done to the people who voted ....
but some of the vote is so great that it might have
got some "help."

BTW ask Berry .... she is now BFF w/ Jenny.

[Botany]

55. So after 5 + years, tons of dead, and trillions of $s the Iraqi troops ...

..... are getting out of their tanks and walking away in battle?
This is Veitnam w/ sand.

:cry:

[bleever]

56. Gilbert AZ!

That's where my brother lives. It's not a big town.

[SeattleGirl]

58. I just copied this from one of MonkeyFunk's posts in GD.

My daughter loves turtles, and I think she'll get a kick out of it:

[GigiMommy]

60. ..."sooooo get up and get away to McDonaldsssssss!"

I remember that ad.

[WolverineDG]

61. BARRY MANILOW!!

He wrote that jingle (& lots of others)!!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

73. A popular misconception

That was a guy named Kenny Karen. But it's attributed to him because of that medley on Barry Manilow Live. But you're right, he did write a lot of them including "I am stuck on Band-Aid, and a Band-Aid's stuck on me", as well as the "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there".

[WolverineDG]

78. Interesting

I thought that medley was made up of jingles he composed. Oh Barry, you LIED!! :cry:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

82. He broke my heart.

He didn't write the Dr Pepper one either. :(

So, you ready for Texas' results to be final? :bounce:

[WolverineDG]

91. oh god yes

:bounce:

dg

[gkhouston]

94. I'm ready for the high drama and low comedy that will probably characterize

Saturday's conventions. I can't wait to see what's going to happen.

[Patsy Stone]

101. Fisticuffs?

I wonder if anyone's changed their mind. Can you change your mind?

[gkhouston]

106. Theoretically I can but I haven't. I know someone who almost has

but she's a Clinton delegate dismayed by the recent shenanigans. I think if anyone tries to do anything shady on Saturday, she might just leave the convention.

[Patsy Stone]

111. So it is possible.

I wasn't sure. I wonder how many others feel like she does? And, IIRC, even this isn't the end for you guys, right? There's something in June too?

Could you make it a little more complicated? :)

[gkhouston]

113. Well, this person isn't thinking of switching sides so much as simply

stomping off in a huff. And yes, it won't be settled until the state convention but I would expect there to be fewer changes between tomorrow and June than between March 4th and tomorrow. I don't think the question for tomorrow is "who will switch sides?" so much as "who's going to be there?" My gut feeling, which may be wrong, is that the Clinton people may have trouble getting a full turnout for all of the delegate slots they got on March 4th which could be why they decided I was one of theirs. :P I'm half-expecting to get there, not be needed for my side (I'm an alternate), and then have the Clinton people try to get me to cross over.

[ralps]

66. Rachel!!!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

67. RACHEL!!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[GigiMommy]

68. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[ralps]

69. A Nuclear Terrorist Pussy Cat??? WTF??

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :wtf:

[GigiMommy]

71. Sounds like a job for...

[Botany]

70. did anyone notice that when McCain was walking w/ bush that .....

..... he had to stop and slowly step down that one step?

He looked real old.

[SeattleGirl]

72. Hi Bot!

Yep, he did. He's gonna look sooooooo bad in the debate against Obama.

[gkhouston]

77. what are the Republicans going to do if McCain dies before the convention?

He seems to have aged visibly in the past year.

[Botany]

85. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

Please don't tell the others.

I noticed Cindy McCain helping him walk down steps
from a plane.

what are the Republicans going to do if McCain dies before the convention?

[gkhouston]

89. go from the body dead to the brain dead?

There are a LOT of people in this country who DO NOT WANT to vote for ANYONE named Bush much less a Bush related to W. Do the Republicans truly not get this?

[Botany]

93. He is the smart one.

Just think we could have a Jeb Bush v Hillary Clinton race.

[Patsy Stone]

109. Please shut up

I got a whole bag of "Shh!" with your name on it.

[Patsy Stone]

75. Dust running through his veins

:hi:

[Botany]

87. He will be 72 (convention) and has had cancer ....

.... Melanoma has a habit of coming back.

[Patsy Stone]

92. And an alien humanoid wife.

Hello, President Obama.

[bleever]

74. Ellen Burstyn?

What, they couldn't get this guy?

[GigiMommy]

81. Yet ANOTHER alum from my high school.

Cass Tech!

[WolverineDG]

76. GIVE IT TO 'EM KEITH!!

Keep kicking those blood-sucking, money-grubbing asshats at Wal-Mart in the nuts until they give that lady her money back WITH INTEREST!!!!!!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

83. Every night

until they pay her back. Assholes.

[Patsy Stone]

79. My bestest friend lives in Bellingham, WA

I'm glad she's so well protected by HSA. LOL.

[ralps]

80. Today's worst person in the world is Micheal Chertoff! for talking about a

Nuclear Kitty!! That had radiation treatment a couple of days before it was caught by a radiation detector!! LOL :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl: :rofl:

[SharonRB]

84. Sorry, guys, got a call from Nancy

and just got off the phone. I'll have to go back and read the thread and come back for the 10 p.m. show.

[WolverineDG]

86. CNN TRYING TO STEAL THE PRINCESS????

How DARE they! :grr: :nuke: :grr:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

110. And they've just noticed her?

What a nose for news they have over there.

[ralps]

88. Princess Maria almost stolen by CNN?? & She calls Keith her Pimp!!! LOL

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[WolverineDG]

99. hee hee

Keith was the personification of this smilie: :yoiks:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

104. Totally

He even took of his glasses.

BERRY!!! Where are you?

[Patsy Stone]

90. Maria just said

"You're my pimp, and I'm your ho."

That's two times in two nights on MSNBC with two different female radio hosts.

[WolverineDG]

97. And Keith tries to dive under the desk

:spray: :rofl:

dg

[WolverineDG]

95. We get to celebrate by working this weekend

:rofl:

dg

[Botany]

96. Siegleman Free!

That is great news and a nuclear bomb for Rove & Gonzo.

[SharonRB]

98. It's the best news I've heard in ages

:woohoo:

[Botany]

102. The whole dirty D o J / Rove / thug network is going to be outed.

I read he will give testimony in front of the House Judiciary
committee .... and I guarantee you Rove is looking @ huge
law suit too.

Prison is too good fro those shits. BTW Horton who wrote
for Harpers is great.

[GigiMommy]

100. Oh my gosh...

this is huge!:woohoo:

[Botany]

105. This real bad for Rove & Gonzo.

I read today that Attorney General Michael Mukasey tried
to stop the release today.

[bleever]

103. Thanks to SG and Firefox, I now have the smilies I need.

[gkhouston]

107. I had no idea they sold sake in such quantities.

I hope they sell hangover remedies by the boxcar.

[bleever]

108. Yes indeedy.

And I can't believe there's no sumo smilie!

I think I've found my destiny...

[Berry Cool]

112. Sorry I couldn't be here last night. I went out. But my recording machine still works.

:hi: I too was spooked by the "cold intro" to Keith last night. Whassup with that?!? I hope it's not a new pattern.

As for Hillary, I hope her words don't come too late to do any good.

You guys don't REALLY think there are that many "McCain Democrats," do you? If there are, I'm gonna tear their heads off and cram 'em down their necks. And yes, "McCain Enablers" is the PERFECT name for them!

While going through my DVD, I found another great caption from earier this week that I missed: "Guerre de Nomination." :rofl: Little takeoff on "Nom de Guerre." You gotta wake up pretty early to beat these guys. Then again, maybe Keith came up with that one. I love it when he speaks French!

I'm so glad Keith is staying on the Wal-Mart story. Good for him!

I knew he would love that story about the dumb criminal who tried to rob the muffler shop but, after he found out the manager with the combination to the safe wasn't there, gave them his cell phone number and ASKED THEM TO CALL HIM BACK WHEN THE MANAGER CAME IN SO HE COULD GET HIS MONEY! :rofl:

The "Nancy Ploy" caption, I thought, was weak. Not to mention possibly offensive to gays.

Bot exaggerates my relationship with Jenny Brunner...but amusingly so.

Pats, you mean Barry Manilow didn't write:

It's not a cola, it's something much, much more
It's not a root beer, there are root beers by the score
Drink Dr Pepper, the joy of every boy and girl
It's the most original soft drink ever in the whole wide world

My heart is broken! :cry:

I hate to tell Bot, but there's not really a high likelihood of McCain's melanoma coming back at this point. Apparently the pathology is not that bad and he's made it a long time without a recurrence.

And it sure is nice to know that thanks to Homeland Security, we're all safe from the biggest danger our country faces...radioactive cats.

HOW DARE CNN TRY TO POACH OUR PRINCESS???? I will be forever grateful to her for causing Keith to take off his glasses and bury his head in his hairy hands with her "You're my pimp, I'm your whore" remark. And Keith giving her a tiara was a scream. What will Steph and the Mooks make out of this, I wonder???

See you tonight, kids.
